About Fenris

Fenris is the brainchild of insurance industry veteran Jen Linton, who recognized that the insurance industry needed to streamline the digital quoting process while preserving underwriting integrity and accuracy. As platform players threaten to disrupt traditional insurers, Jen understood that an insurtech company led by experienced innovators from the incumbents is uniquely positioned to help them drive success and a better customer experience. In 2016, she started Fenris with the goal of creating an industry leader in data, scores, and technology to support sustainable, customer-centric growth in insurance and financial services.

What makes us different

With millions of applications scored, Fenris has demonstrated its impact on increased conversion rates, decreased cost of acquisition, and reduced manual entry for a better customer journey at point of quote. By leveraging external data in a way purpose-built for personal lines, commercial lines, and life insurance, Fenris has led the industry with its scores for propensity to buy, lifetime value, cross-sell potential, and financial responsibility.

Our impact

With access to Fenris’ API, a carrier or agency applies the quantified insights earlier than ever before at the point of quote, and clients are seeing 3x increase in conversion by knowing which applications to prioritize, a 25% decrease in cost of acquisition due to smarter ordering of downstream reports, and up to 80% reduction in manual effort.
